It's That Point In The Semester As Told By "Full House"

Your motivation has gone out the window.

It's That Point In The Semester As Told By "Full House"
Our Canadian Adventure

It's that point in the semester. Finals are quickly approaching, assignments are piling up and your motivation has gone out your fourth floor window. Your heart is longing for the holiday season, but you're still stuck crying into that anatomy textbook. Full House accurately describes all of us at that point in the semester.

1. When someone tries to talk to you before you've had your extra large morning coffee.

No talkie until I've had my coffee mister.

2. It's super easy to become distracted.


Because you honestly don't care anymore. Watching grass grow would be more entertaining than reading this court case.

3. You arrive 10 minutes late to lecture.

Because you hit snooze 5x but at least you showed up, right? That counts for something!

4. When your professor assigns two papers, a quiz and a forum.

Bonus points if they're all due by Friday, she waited until Wednesday to assign them, and they're worth 40% of your grade.

5. When you go to the gym to relieve some stress.

Only to binge out on junk food the moment you return to your dorm. Balance, right?

6. When prayers do nothing to stop the assignments from coming.

God, help a girl out!

7. When your appearance accurately reflects how your life is going.

It's not going well and your hair is made up of 99% dry shampoo.

8. When you fail a test because you were too busy studying for another test.

Bonus points if you failed the test you studied for too.

9. When you skip class because your care has gone out the window.


My bed is just so comfy and the lecture hall is just so far away, I can miss three classes, right?! What is an attendance policy anyways?

10. When you think you're finally caught up!

WHAT?!? I'M CAUGHT UP?! I can actually leave the library??!?

11. Only to realize you forgot to finish that group project...

Now you have to pull an all-nighter. Coffee IV drip, anyone?

12. When you and your roommate are equally swamped.

"If I go lay in traffic, will you join me?" "If I jump out the window, will you join me?" "Can I microwave my textbook?" "Can I drown myself in the shower?"

13. When you remember how close you are to being done with this semester.

YOU CAN DO IT ONLY A FEW MORE WEEKS!

So to everyone struggling to finish the semester on a positive note, just remember how far you've come! Go to class, study hard, but treat yourself every once in awhile. Don't wish that the semester would end too fast though, because come January, we both know you'll be dying to come back!

Best of luck, and all the good vibes!

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

The 5 Painfully True Stages Of Camping Out At The Library

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings. All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
